AMERICAN TRANSPORTATION AND
ISLANDS INTERESTS.

The Interstate Commerce Act has not
worked the charm in transportation in
the States which It's advocates forecast
as the result of its approval. 1t was
thought that by equalizing long and short
haul charges the lower schedule would
be adopted by the railroad corporations.
Such has not been the case, however.
Long haul charges have been advanced
to the local freight basis, which means,
for the present at least, a large increase
in the cost of merchandise and material
brought from Eastern points to the Pa
cifc Coast, and to other regions where
interstate traffic had been fostered by a
liberal railroad policy. The immediate
effect has been to disturb existing bust
ness arrangements, and SO far as the
Coast is concerned to stimulate the ocean
carrying trade.
At this point another difficulty arises,
however. The voyage from the Atlantic
cities of the United States to San Fran
cisco, Portland or other American ports
on the Pacific is coasting voyage, and
freight can only be carried in American
bottoms But the high protective tariff,
and the "decadence OF American ship
ping" have ia great measure removed
from the high seas vessels available for
this trade under the new conditions OF
freight transportation. There are old
wooden vessels available, but these are
hardly equal to the requirements of the
trade, and~it is to the fact that inferior
bottoms are pressed into use that the
low sugar charter from San Francisco to
New York reported by last mail is at
tributable.
A strong effort is being made at San
Francisco to suspend the Interstate
Commerce law, so far as it applies to the
Pacific Coast But the case which the
Eastern manufacturers and transporta-
ton companies present against such sus-
pension is far stronger than the case
made by the American Refinery and
other business interests on the Coast in
it's favor. Unless we entirely misjudge
the situation created by the enactment
of the-law In question no exception in
favor of the Coast trade will be made,
and ocean transportation will have to be
resorted to as an offset to high railroad
charges. The ultimate effect will be to
stimulate local manufactures 80 that the
Coast population may be in great degree
self-sustaining, having for its field of ex
port the vast expanse of Pacific coun-
tries. Such result is one to be regarded
with complacency, but it clearly does not
help the Islands sugar interests, in view
of the general declaration of weakness
by the American Refinery. However,
we shall probably Ashave more detailed
news on the arrival from the Coast of
the Australia to-day.

wish of Emperor William that his grand
son should make another voyage before
the wedding, as now that the succession IS
secure, Prince William having four sons,
His Majesty is no longer solicitious to see
Prince Henry married.

"A paragraph in one of the Berlin papers
causes considerable anxiety among the
naturalized German-American residents
in Berlin. The paragraph gives notice {:
First, that by decision of the German
Government, inferior administrative au-
thorities will in future take notice of com
plants regarding the expulsion from Ger
many of Germans who host their German
citizenship by FIVE years residence in
other countries, together with the acquisi-
ton of some foreign citizenship. Second,
That such denationalized Germans are
| subject to Immediate expulsion from Ger
many, unless they have reacquired Ger.
man citizenship. Third, That the law Of
1870, which compels the Judges to grant
German citizenship to Germans who, by
long residence in foreign countries, have
lost their rights as Germans, does not ap-
ply to those who, during their residence
abroad, have obtained citizenship from
some foreign nation: ~

UNITED STATES TREASURY STATE
MENT.

The public debt of the United States
is a vanishing quantity. The United
States Government has more money
than it knows well what to do with, and
get less than quarter of a century ago
its bonds were selling at go or under.
Since the war it has paid off large por-
ton of the National debt, and on March
81, 1887, the principal of the funded debt
stood at 81, 1872 ,571, 112, interest upon
which was $11 ,713, 141. AS showing the
plethora of money in the United States
it may be mentioned that matured bonds
representing 1926, 275. with $I9S,717
interest. remained unclaimed at the
United States Treasury on the date
named. This large sum, aggregating
81, ~, 1892, is at safe deposit, and SO long
as it remains IN the vaults of the United
States Treasury is not liable to State
taxation, which roughly may be set
down at 2 per cent. This exemption is
the only apparent reason for the capital
sum in question not being withdrawn for
private investment.
The non-interest bearing debt of the
United States is 1886, 79s, 267, of which
the principal item is the amount of
Treasury notes or 'sgreenbacks'' in circu-
lation. For the redemption Of United
States bonds reserve of one hundred

million dollars is in the Treasury. De-
Quoting this amount there remained on
March 31st cash balance of 1868, 1885,
gu available for the reduction of the
National debt, except $26, 752, 672 sur
plus, which could not be SO applied.
The total cash in the Treasury, as shown
by the Treasurer's general accounts,
was $453, 117 ,O86. The National debt
was reduced by $12. 89s, 4s7 during the
month Of March last.
